Appointments typically last 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the complexity of your chosen design. This timeframe includes your consultation, a detailed explanation of the process, and aftercare instructions.

Question 2

How long will my tooth gems last?

Accepted Answer

Tooth gems are a semi-permanent service, meaning they won't last forever, but they can sparkle anywhere from a month to over a year! The secret to their longevity is how well you follow our aftercare guidelines. For example, biting into an unchopped apple could potentially dislodge your tooth gem, we’ll cover little things like where you place your gem (like on your bottom teeth) or choosing a larger gem size and the impacts!

Question 7

Are you a dentist?

Accepted Answer

No, I'm a professionally trained tooth gem technician, not a dentist. My expertise is specifically in the safe and artistic application of tooth gems. I've had specialized training to ensure your gem is applied correctly and without harm to your teeth, using high-quality, dental-grade adhesive that's gentle and pain-free. I do not remove tooth gems, you will need to visit your local dentist or hygienist for a scale and polish.

Question 8

Will you remove my toothgems?

Accepted Answer

I will not remove any tooth gems and It's really important to know that in the UK, any tooth technician who claims they can remove tooth gems is acting illegally. Removing tooth gems and the adhesive requires specific dental tools and training to prevent damage to your teeth and enamel, and this falls within the scope of practice for registered dental professionals like dentists or hygienists. Attempting to remove them yourself or having an untrained person do it can be really unsafe for your teeth and enamel.

Question 9

Are there requirements for Toothgems?

Accepted Answer

To ensure a safe and successful application, everyone needs to fill out our mandatory consultation form beforehand. You'll need to be at least 18 years old, or 16 with a parent or guardians permission who is present at your appointment, with both of you bringing valid photo ID. It's also crucial that you have healthy teeth and gums; unfortunately, we can't apply gems if you have braces, veneers, active cavities, gum disease, or other dental issues, if you have any queries, pop us a message!

Question 10

Accepted Answer

No, we contacted the GDC directly when setting up, and they confirmed; As a tooth gem technician, my services are cosmetically limited to applying tooth gems; I don't perform teeth whitening, gem removal, or provide assistance with a sore tooth. However, I can certainly add a sparkle to a healthy smile! GDC registration isn't applicable but, please know I've undergone professional training for 12+ months, completing numerous tests.
